Left 4 Dead….Southie
Just in time for the St Patrick’s festivities. Looks like some geek decided to make a Left for Dead 2 video game map. Notice the Boston Police paddy wagon and the East 1st Street sign….and of course M Street Park in the second video. The map is called Last Bastion….and it’s a pretty neat tribute to Southie. These maps take weeks to develop…so this guy deserves some Kudos. The third video features a fly through with “Southie is my home town” playing in the background. And finally…Castle Island on the last video.
This video game reminds me of Southie after last call on any given Friday. 😉
